OK ... back to the movies. Today I saw "Mona Lisa Smile" (I had to ... it was a teacher movie!) The movie was good, but not great ... I'm glad that I saw it. Well, there was one scene in that movie that was absolutely fabulous. There was a character in that movie, in that particular scene, who was written with an amazing strength of character. I only hope that I could be so strong. She learned something about one of her classmate's personal life. This other classmate was berating her publicly (and mercilessly, I might add!) ... and her response was to embrace the other girl until she stopped berating her and broke down in tears. An amazing example of grace. Absolutely wonderful! My favorite part of a movie is when a character chooses the way more honorable, even though to choose the other way would be completely understandable and chosen by 99% of the other good people out there. This was that! :-) Go see to movie to know what I'm talking about!!
